An interesting twist this week as three different 9-inning games beat out the best extra inning game (Marlins-Astros on 15-Apr). The first two games were both bottom of the 9th walk off victories, but the Orioles at Blue Jays on 13-Apr was actually saw it’s last lead change in the 8th inning.

One week down, and here are the most exciting games so far. I rolled the first few games into this one for a complete look at the season so far. In the future, I’ll provide a breakdown of both the top 10 games of the week, and a running total for the season.

There have been 10 games so far this year, two in Japan, one in Miami, and the rest last night. We’ve already seen two extra inning games, one game won in the bottom of the 9th, and another lead change in the top of the 9th. Exciting baseball indeed.

Welcome to my little corner of the baseball world. This year, I’m going to attempt to publish my thoughts on a semi-weekly basis of a few different baseball metrics. These are not your normal baseball metrics. They’re purely out of my head, and as far as I can tell, they’ve never been measured before. I won’t jump into the formulas for each here, and instead will try to provide a bit of narrative around each so that you know what you’re looking at.
